We have had a very busy month learning about mini-beasts. We went on a mini-beast hunt in our nursery garden and found millipedes, wood louse, wriggly worms, slugs, snails and spiders. We also found lots of snails in our own gardens at home and brought them into nursery where we set up a snail house. We observed how the snails moved very slowly leaving lots of slimy, silvery trails. We have enjoyed painting butterfly and snail pictures, making mini-beasts using recyclable materials as well as having fun making a spider's web in the sand tray and a wibbly wobbly jelly pond for frogs.
Lots of playful fun exploring activities relating to our topic 'Wish You Were Here!'
See the children enjoying number fun while playing ‘Frogs on a log’ game and 'Build a Bus' when learning about addition (more than) and subtraction (less than).
We had great fun with Jo Jingles as we sang songs, played instruments and moved to lots of minibeast music!
Minibeasts
This month we have been learning all about minibeasts. During circle time we discussed how they move, what they look like and where they live. Outdoors we had great fun going on a minibeast hunt and found millipedes, worms, snails and slugs! We set up a snail tank in nursery and watched as they made snail trails and slithered around very slowly. In the art area we were busy painting butterflies, bees and using recyclable materials to make our own minibeasts.
The children enjoyed a fun filled day of activities in the park with their friends from Presentation P.S. Lead by Healthy Kidz coaches, the children took part in dance, fitness, fun games and the Golden Mile run. An action packed day was had by all. Well done everyone!
Today P5P took part in The Big Walk. Thankfully the sun shone and we all had a great afternoon.
